BiblioBoard 101 Webinar - March 8, 2019
Are you looking to provide tools to support your local authors while also growing your readers' access to digital resources - all available for free and with no waiting? In the last year, the Wisconsin Public Library Consortium (WPLC) introduced new resources for Wisconsin writers and readers, in partnership with BiblioBoard and with funding from IMLS. For creators, those resources include Pressbooks, SELF-e, and the Wisconsin Author Project (which is about to enter its second round!). For readers, BiblioBoard Library provides access to much of this content created by Wisconsin authors and a lot more, all available to read immediately - no waiting for holds and no logging in.
Join WPLC Project Managers from WiLS, Melody Clark and Andi Coffin, in a free and virtual webinar as they share information about these four resources and how you can help users find and use them on Friday, March 8th at 1:00PM.
This presentation will be recorded and shared. Register to attend by visiting https://goo.gl/forms/T4N0xElJhJoIXT5e2.
